The Seven
Principles of Man
by
Annie Besant
PREFACE
Few words are needed in sending this little book out into the world. It is the
first of a series of Manuals designed to meet the public demand a simple
exposition of Theosophical teachings. Some have complained that our literature
is at once too abstruse, too technical, and too expensive for the ordinary
reader, and it is our hope that the present series may succeed in supplying
what is a very real want. Theosophy is not only for the learned; it is for all.
It may be that among those who in these little books catch their first glimpse
of its teachings, there may be a few who will be led by them to penetrate more
deeply into its philosophy, its science, and its religion, facing its abstruser
problems with the student's zeal and the neophyte's ardour. But these Manuals
are not written for the eager student whom no initial difficulties can daunt;
they are written for the busy men and women of the work-a-day world and seek to
make plain some of the great truths that render life easier to bear and death
easier to face. Written by servants of the Masters who are the Elder Brothers
of our race, they can have no other object than to serve our fellowmen.
